Hello Tom,

 

Story #1: This is an exciting time at Integrity Research Institute. Not only have we finished editing the long-awaited “Faster Than Light” book by aerospace engineer David Froning, improved the EM Pulser and EM PulsePad to be rechargeable without battery removal, and received a written endorsement for our Spiral Magnetic Motor development from an electric motor company, but this month the 32-page review article on an amazing equation for climate change has been published by a major peer-reviewed journal. The last achievement took some perseverance and it was well worth the effort since it is an open access journal, so everyone can download a full color copy in PDF . The article was published this year to honor Dr. Jim Hansen from NASA who in 1988 was the only one to accurately publish a projection of the 1°C temperature rise for 2019 (his graph is included in my paper)! Why he chose 2019 for the endpoint of his prediction is a mystery but we are glad that he did. The full article is intended for students, skeptics, and the general public who may know little or nothing about the changing climate. Every term is defined and explained, with a steady progression through the latest carbon emissions, population growth, a CO2 experiment with Alka-Selzer in soda bottles, the renewable solutions proposed by experts (see Stanford’s below) and the amazingly predictive Hansen Graph. Make copies and share with everyone who will be still around in 2040, 2060, 2080, and 2100, each of which will be an entirely different world than it is today.

 

Story #2 offers a nice short tutorial on negative energy, which is the energy of the quantum vacuum of space and also gravity. Theoretical physicist Grumiller finds that “borrowing” negative energy, say from the Casimir force, is possible in order to do work. A related article from Nature also points out the same type of discovery with high energy X-ray emission produced, with an extra boost from the vacuum: “Light emission based on nanophotonic vacuum forces” .This is a key to our future, even of space travel, and also the name of one of my books: Zero Point Energy: The Fuel of the Future which predicted this capability of the vacuum over a decade ago.

 

Our Story #3 documents a true breakthrough in nuclear fusion. Yes, real nuclear fusion. To quote from the article from Physics World, a publication of the Institute of Physics: “The Phoenix system https://phoenixwi.com/ works by accelerating positively-charged deuterium ions into a target of tritium gas to induce a fusion reaction. This reaction results in the production of high-energy neutrons and helium. These neutrons then pass into a tank and strike their target: low-enriched uranium (LEU) dissolved in an aqueous solution. This causes the uranium nuclei to split and create multiple elements, including Mo-99 and other useful isotopes.” When tritium is used with deuterium in an attempted (D-T) nuclear fusion reaction, it is well know that the energy yield is much higher than D-D fusion. However, this appears to be the first recorded successful high yield D-T fusion reaction yet achieved. It also has a useful purpose and domestic medical isotope byproduct https://shinemed.com/, which is also a first. The former CEO of the Phoenix system which supplied the high-energy neutron generator, says “The world-record proves the accelerator technology is suitable to produce medical isotopes at the scale required to support a robust business case,” says Piefer. “It is also a stepping stone toward advancing fusion for other, more ambitious applications, including the recycling of nuclear waste and ultimately the creation of cleaner, safer and more abundant energy.”

 

Story #4 gives us a lot of hope for settling Mars and also converting our excess CO2 into oxygen. Caltech physicists have found that by electrically charging CO2, found in the Mars atmosphere, and crashing the molecules into oppositely charged gold foil, the CO2 gains enough energy upon impact to turn the two O2 atoms toward each other and thereby separate from the carbon atom, thus producing molecular oxygen. No real chemistry is involved, only classical Newtonian physics which an educational CO2 -> O2 GIF on the site graphically shows.  

 

Story #5 is also a first, being a breakthrough in longevity research. UCLA offers hope for those wishing to turn their biological clock backwards and live a few years longer. A growth hormone and diabetes drugs appear to reverse a person’s biological age by about 2.5 years and was verified by genome analysis. Without a control, the results are considered preliminary but still seem to be a significant achievement in proving such a reversal is even possible. The related article is also very interesting in the same science.

 

Onward and upward!

1) IRI Press Release: New Article Published in Journal of Environment and Climate Change

 

PRESS RELEASE: "Predictive Connection for 2100 between Atmospheric Carbon, Global Warming and Ocean Height Based on Climate History"

This 32-page review, published October 11, 2019 in the open access, International Journal of Environment and Climate Change, found that observationally informed projections of climate science underlying climate change offer a different outlook for the most likely outcome for 2100 that mirrors Hansen’s publications from 1988 and 2006. Being a few decades ahead of every other climatologist made Hansen’s work the leader which only recently has been corroborated by other leading climatologists. This review confidently states that five to six-degree (5-6°C) increase is the “most accurate” prediction for 2100 with regard to present trends, climate history and models. The most significant result from the review is a quantitative, linear global temperature link to carbon dioxide levels, which has a short temporal feedback loop, as well as long-term quantitative sea level rise expectation, in equation form. 

Dr. Tom Valone from Integrity Research Institute examined an obscure graph and numerical table from “The Messenger” in MIT’s Technology Review  over the past 13 year period. Comparing author and esteemed climatologist Dr. Jim Hansen’s graph with every available predictive report and publication during that time, he developed a simple climate equation based on “Hansen’s Graph” from 2006 to produce a predictive climate forecast, which also has a rare and highly desired quantitative aspect for reliability.

2) It's Possible to Borrow Energy from Empty Space

 

The Concept of Negative Energy in Physics Explained

The theory of general relativity makes us assume that "the energy is greater than zero, at all times and everywhere in the Universe," said Professor Daniel Grumiller from the Institute for Theoretical Physics at the TU Wien (Vienna). If we follow the theory of general relativity, this would mean that negative energy means negative mass. Positive masses attract each other, and if a negative mass arises, gravity will become a repulsive force. Quantum theory, however, allows for negative energy.

3) Record Breaking Fusion Reaction for Medical Technologies

 

Nuclear technology companies Phoenix and SHINE Medical Technologies have achieved a new world record for a nuclear fusion reaction in a steady-state system, the strongest of its kind ever produced on Earth. The reaction yielded 46 trillion (4.6×10^13) neutrons per second, eclipsing the previous record by nearly 25% and setting a new standard for neutron generator technology.

This breakthrough could prove great news for the field of nuclear medicine. SHINE was founded in 2010 to create a safe, cost-effective and environmentally-friendly technology to produce medical isotopes. And it’s using Phoenix’s high-flux neutron generators to achieve this.

In particular, the companies aim to resolve the ongoing global supply issues of molybdenum-99 (Mo-99), a radioisotope that decays into the diagnostic imaging agent technetium-99m (Tc-99m). The most prevalent nuclear medicine agent, Tc-99m is employed in tens of millions of medical diagnostic procedures each year, primarily in stress tests to diagnose heart disease or to stage cancer.

 

4) Scientists Cook A New Way to Make Air Breathable in Mars

 

Scientists have found a new way that future Mars explorers could potentially generate their own oxygen.

Mars is a long way from Earth, so being able to create breathable air on-site would save money and effort in having to haul oxygen all the way from our own planet.

A research team discovered this new oxygen-generating reaction by studying comets. Most of these small icy worlds originate in a distant area of the solar system known as the Oort Cloud, far beyond the orbit of Neptune. If a comet's orbit brings it close to the sun, heat begins pushing cometary ice off into space. This reaction produces long tails that can stretch for thousands of miles.

 

5) Biological Age Can Be Reversed

 

In a small trial, drugs seemed to rejuvenate the body’s ‘epigenetic clock’, which tracks a person’s biological age.

 

For one year, nine healthy volunteers took a cocktail of three common drugs — growth hormone and two diabetes medications — and on average shed 2.5 years of their biological ages, measured by analysing marks on a person’s genomes. The participants’ immune systems also showed signs of rejuvenation.

The results were a surprise even to the trial organizers — but researchers caution that the findings are preliminary because the trial was small and did not include a control arm.“I’d expected to see slowing down of the clock, but not a reversal,” says geneticist Steve Horvath at the University of California, Los Angeles, who conducted the epigenetic analysis. “That felt kind of futuristic.” The findings were published on 5 September in Aging Cell1.
